🌪️ Strengthening Community Preparedness in Temotu 🌊

Malo and Banua Village Disaster & Climate Risk Committees (VDCRCs) in Santa Cruz recently completed a 2-day training on disaster planning and simulation exercises in Lata on 11 April 2026.

Led by Oxfam, under the Australian Humanitarian Partnership - Disaster READY Project, the training equipped participants with practical, hands-on skills to effectively plan and run disaster simulations—helping communities respond quickly and confidently when disasters strike.

💬 “We have learned so much, and this will help us improve our roles and responsibilities,” shared the Chairlady of Malo VDCRC.

The program also included:
✅ Reviewing community disaster plans
✅ Distribution of emergency kits to support preparedness

In times like these, one message is clear:
👉 Preparedness saves lives.

🍀Proud to Stand Together for Climate Justice 🍀

We are proud to have partnered with the Solomon Islands Climate Action Network-SICAN through Oxfam’s Kotui Programme and the Pacific Climate Change Collaboration Influencing and Learning Project (PACCCIL) in delivering the Climate Justice Dialogue held on 10–11 March 2026 at the National Museum Auditorium.

✨ Under the theme “Rooted Resistance: Uniting Rural Voices for Climate Justice”, this dialogue created a powerful space for communities and stakeholders to share their voices and shape the path toward COP31 & other important climate conferences.

🙏 A sincere thank you to SICAN for your leadership, coordination, and commitment to amplifying rural voices across the Solomon Islands. Your work continues to inspire collective action for climate justice.

💬 We also extend our appreciation to all participants and partners who contributed their knowledge, experiences, and passion.

💚 Together, partnerships like these strengthen our shared vision for a just and resilient future.

🚨🌏 Four Village Disaster & Climate Risk Committees Receive Emergency Kits

The Sukiki and Komuvaolu, Buma and Ailau Village Disaster and Climate Risk Committees (VDCRCs) in Guadalcanal and Malaita Provinces respectively have received emergency kits from Oxfam. These communities are the project sites for the Oxfam Disaster READY project including eight more communities in Central and Temotu provinces

📦 The Sukiki, Komuvaolu, Buma, and Ailau Village Disaster and Climate Risk Committees (VDCRCs) recently received emergency kits from Oxfam through the Disaster READY Project.

🤝 The kits were handed over by Mr. Jamal Namo (Oxfam) during a joint visit by Oxfam and the Solomon Islands Meteorological Service (SIMS) from 23rd to 27th February to Sukiki and Komuvaolu villages and 4th to 9th March to Buma and Ailau in Malaita Province. The trip to Malaita involved representatives from National Disability Forum Solomon Islands and West Are’Are Rokotanikeni Association (WARA).

This initiative is part of the Disaster READY Project under the Australian Humanitarian Partnership (AHP), funded by the Australian Government 🇦🇺.

💬 During the handover in Sukiki, the VDCRC Chairman expressed heartfelt thanks to Oxfam:

“We do not want to see our VDCRC become inactive. We want to be proactive, and this kit motivates us to continue our work.”

🧭 Communities also participated in disaster simulation exercises and awareness sessions to strengthen preparedness:
✔ Sukiki conducted a full simulation exercise
✔ Komuvaolu, Buma, and Ailau carried out tabletop exercises

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Community members showed strong interest and participation, including many young people, highlighting the importance of preparing the next generation for disaster response.

The visit also supported:
📋 Review of community disaster plans
♿ Discussions on disability inclusion in DRR
📝 Action planning and community preparedness

🌱 Working together builds stronger and safer communities. Disaster preparedness is everyone’s responsibility.

Marybeth, our Kōtui Programme MERL Lead, has been working alongside our Solomon Islands Climate Action Network-SICAN partners as they research the long‑term impacts of climate finance initiatives.​

Together, they’re listening to communities in Malaita to understand what’s working, what’s not, and how future climate funding can better support women and girls on the frontlines of climate change.​

Ngā mihi nui, SICAN. Your powerful mahi in this space is vital for future generations. 💚​
